Wow its been a while since I updated this thread.Haven't been highly motivated to build lately.But once I saw bryan's version of this truck it light a fire under me to get back to the bench.Not a whole lot of progress but all 4 control arms are done.

I've started on the rest of the cab floor.I have half of the driveshaft tunnel done.
Thanx for lookin'

Here is the start of the trans tunnel/ctr console.The console and backwall/stereo enclosure will be smoothed into what looks like one giant enclosure.

Thanx for lookin'

Made a small amount of progress in the past couple days.I finished my driveshaft tunnel / center console.

I still need to smooth everything out and build the sub enclosure in front of the rearwall which is my next step.
I removed the vent windows from the front glass area.You can see in the picture a stock glass assembly and the modified one.

I test fitted the dash as well.I need to shim the sides a bit to get it to fit properly.

I got my interior pretty much the way I want it now.

The start of the sub-box.

The face of the box in place with the subs mocked up.

Switchbox,amp and subs mocked to see how it will look.

Seats from an AMT 1966 Nova mocked up.

looks amazing hope my 56 f100 turn out this good

[gautreau]

Thanx Chris.I'm sure it will.Just take your time,plan everything out and research anything you want to do.

Started on my door panels tonight.This is just a rough lay out at the moment it will probably change before the build is done.

I found a new set of seats that I am going to use instead of the Nova seats.

Thanx for lookin'

[tooltas]

the newer seats look better the novas,

[gautreau]

Thanx I thought so too.

[FatManScaleDesigns]

This truck is gonna be killer!

[gautreau]

Thanx I appreciate that.
On another note with my door panels,I know the still need something can anybody think of anything that will help with the design?

[tooltas]

whats dash look like is it a custom or stock if its stock then leave them like that if it custom then make the top fit the dash.

[gautreau]

The dash is stock.I might take the design off the seats and incorporate that into the door panels.

[gautreau]

Got a little more done to one of the door panels.

I just need to add a door handle of some sort,maybe.
